First order phase transitions: equivalence between bimodalities and the Yang-Lee theorem [PDF]

, 2002
First order phase transitions in finite systems can be defined through the bimodality of the distribution of the order parameter. This definition is equivalent to the one based on the inverted curvature of the thermodynamic potential.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Optimal Fault-Tolerant Control for Dynamic Systems with Distributed Fault Parameter Uncertainty Domains

Ain Shams Engineering Journal
This paper presents an optimal fault-tolerant control (FTC) method for dynamic systems with distributed fault parameter uncertainty. According to the distributed characteristic of the fault parameter uncertainty domain and insufficient fault information,

Stability and stabilisation for switched impulsive positive systems

IET Control Theory & Applications, 2021
The current study is dedicated to addressing the stability and weighted L1‐gain performance analysis of switched impulsive positive systems (SIPSs). Firstly, by designing a novel multiple piecewise‐continuous copositive linear Lyapunov function and using

Relaxation Methods for Mixed-Integer Optimal Control of Partial Differential Equations

, 2012
We consider integer-restricted optimal control of systems governed by abstract semilinear evolution equations. This includes the problem of optimal control design for certain distributed parameter systems endowed with multiple actuators, where the task ...

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

A New Type of Distributed Parameter Control Systems: Two-Point Boundary Value Problems for Infinite-Dimensional Dynamical Systems

Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2013
This survey note describes a new type of distributed parameter control systems—the two-point boundary value problems for infinite-dimensional dynamical systems, particularly, for hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations of second order, some ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Robust H∞ Control for a Class of Nonlinear Distributed Parameter Systems via Proportional-Spatial Derivative Control Approach

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
This paper addresses the problem of robust H∞ control design via the proportional-spatial derivative (P-sD) control approach for a class of nonlinear distributed parameter systems modeled by semilinear parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs).
